But they were fucked up in their turn By fools in old-style hats and coats, Who half the time were soppy-stern And half at one another’s throats.

This is nothing new. A pro just leans into it and sets the patron up with the closest real thing, or with the thing they actually need. Or, if need be, just write the material yourself and lend them that.

30 years ago yesterday the Galileo probe entered the atmosphere of Jupiter. I made this animation for NASA Ames using traditional methods, paint on acetate cels and shot on 35mm film. It is real time like the old Apollo news animations. My sequences start at +35 secs

So I got into late 20th century British popular fantasy litterature puzzles and for some reason this 'De Slimste Mens' style image grid seemed like a good idea. 3 images refer to 1 answer, each image can only be used once. I didn't enjoy making it at all, 😉but maybe you will enjoy solving it!

Hopefully, I'll be able to say the same thing soon(-ish). Looking forward to it. Health is a precious and fragile, err, thing.

Many animals use language. Cats use at least three. I'd argue that the ability to convey abstract concepts through language is our trick. But I'm not a doctor of linguistics (although I do little).

I have been WAITING for a journalist to write this story.
I specialize in manuscripts produced in England between 1300 and 1500. If this had occurred in the midst of writing my dissertation or first book, it would have exploded my career.

I’ve written a piece on the curious lack of media and political interest in the issues faced by our national @britishlibrary.bsky.social. This is strange given we live in a world where ideas, knowledge and research are a long-term source of innovation and insight

The widespread indifference to the British Library's crippling cyberattack demonstrates a perilous failure to value the knowledge infrastructure vital for national prosperity

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."
